Love it!!!

I just moved to the beach in CA and my Harley Dealer back in Atlanta sent me an email telling me that they now sell Genuine Scooters... So, I googled Genuine, and found a dealer in Cali and bought one. I struggled with the 125 vs. the 150cc decision, or stepping up to the "BlackJack" with ...a few extra niceties...but ended up with the Buddy 125...I just liked their colors and looks best. Yes, the 150 I test road had a little more umpf, but only a little... I have been a biker forever, and have a Ducati, Harley, and a Beamer bike...but this new Buddy might be my most fun toy ever!!! It's got great pick up, it handles well in traffic, the fit and finish are perfect! It's all you'll need for an around towner, and living in crowded Cali and on the beach, I have a feeling it will be my most used vehicle... I have been riding all over, errands, beach, dinner, cruising, etc...it's been exceeding my expectations...and all the Vespa folks have been commenting on it... they just don't know I saved $1,000+ vs. what they paid! And, what's EXTRA COOL?...A full 2 year warranty with roadside assistance, unheard of for an inexpensive scooter. So, in a few words, I LOVE IT, it's waaaaay fun! Read Full Review
